[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
You can get an official Dell upgrade package from this page.

You can visit this link

http://mobileupdate.dell.com/PackageProductionLocations/Streak_318_12821_00.pkg

or scan this barcode (it's for the link above)

from your phone to DL the update direct to your phone. If you tap on the notification for the DL after it completes it should install. If it does not

rename it update.pkg and put it in the root of your SD Card

Boot into recovery mode by powering off, then powering on while holding BOTH volume buttons

Select option 2 from the recovery menu to install the update

This will be the same as a factory reset and you will have to install your apps and set up your phone again.

That build is for unlocked Streaks. If you want to install the latest official build for your carrier you can probably get it from this page.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mid_life_crisis:
AT&T locked

Thank you very much.

So if I have a locked AT&T phone, I have three options, if I understand this correctly.

1) Leave it alone and live without Flash capability.

2) Update to whatever is on the last link.

3) Use the non-official update I've seen on this forum. Has the latest one (1.9 I think) been out long enough to be determined if it is stable?

Thanks again for the patience and help.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mid_life_crisis:
Okay, so the link on the Wiki page for a non-unlocked AT&T phone downloads a .mbn file. The other one was a .pkg and if I could use it, I would put it on my SD card. What do I do with the .mbn file to use it to update the Streak? I'm sure there is a thread for using that type of file, so if ysomebody could point me to it, I'll go from there. Preferably a thread that assumes minimal base knowledge level beyond generally using the phone.
[Nexus One General] rickytenzer:
They just started up for me again. Anyone else?
[Nexus One General] mattpannella:
they've never worked for me

not on 2.2 or 2.3

facebook needs new developers. whoever is in charge of that app is clearly terrible at their job
[Nexus One General] mindfrost82:
I haven't seen Facebook use push notifications on any Android phone yet.

They have polling settings (30 minutes, an hour, etc), but not push. There's not even an option for push.
[Nexus One General] flamechamp:
the changelog said after a certain version update it enables the push notification. But.. never worked for the though...
[Nexus One General] gibosn6594:
Pretty sure they only work for certain types of notifications and you have to make sure they are enabled.
[Nexus One General] adamhlj:
They have been off and on again. And for me, they are now on.
[Nexus One General] Jikenda:
I just got one a few minutes ago also.. it's been a while..
[Nexus One General] thesoze:
I was wondering about that. it started yesterday....so, it works for me now
[Nexus One General] rickytenzer:
Finally, some useful replies. :P
[Nexus One General] mindfrost82:
What do you have to do to enable push notifications instead of pull?
[Nexus One General] mattpannella:
they've never even said. the developers are the worst

they put "push updates" in the changelog yet there's not even settings for it

and left in the polling settings. which only work for a few things anyway

it's a total mess
[Nexus One General] sirgoob:
your better off using Flow for Facebook by Chris Banes
[Nexus One General] GldRush98:
Agreed. The Facebook app is ****ing horrendous. Heads should be rolling over there at the awfulness of their app... yet they keep updating the worthless sorry excuse for an app.
[Nexus One General] akusokuzan:
facebook push for me right now.
[Nexus One General] danger-rat:
Seems to get worse with every update...
[Nexus One General] donovanchan:
I set "Never" for "Refresh interval" and enabled "Notifications". I do receive push notification for all Messages and Event invites.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
I think that you need to be signed into chat to enable push notifications.
[Nexus One General] pfmiller:
I don't see a way to not be signed onto chat, not permanently at least. Regardless I am always signed in and get no push updates for anything but chat.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Once you sign out, it stays signed out, it's pretty permanent for me.
[Nexus One General] pfmiller:
I thought that might be true, but have no way to verify it since after signing out when i go back to the chat screen i am signed in again. Really poor interface, have we mentioned recently how terrible the apps developers are?
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
I only know for sure because when signed in the app used a lot of wakelock, and when signed out it stopped :)
[Nexus One General] mattpannella:
yeah signing into chat doesn't fix it for me

like i said, i'ts never worked for me

if you go on the app's facebook page there's hundreds of comments and maybe like 5% of them are people saying it actually works
[Nexus One General] sirgoob:
That always happened to me. I would sign out of chat, only to find 2 hours later, Id have open chats showing on the desktop.
[Nexus One General] jspidey:
I still don't have an option for Push. IIRC, I did after they updated FB to enable push but I noticed it was missing after I started running CM7. I've never been 100% sure if that has anything to do with it, but I've asked some of my friends running Froyo and they don't have the option either.
[Nexus One General] robotnoize:
working here finally after months of waiting. Wonder what happened.
[Nexus One General] richua:
What notifications are getting pushed? Is it the same as the 3 options available for polling?
[Nexus One General] mindfrost82:
It just started working for me today too.

I have polling set to Never and so far I got push notifications for a comment on one of my updates and when someone sent me a message.

I got the app notification before I even got the SMS and Email.
[Nexus One General] richua:
I turned my settings on last night to what you have and so far no push notifications. I actually don't mind since I've grown used to the emails; I'll leave it on and see what happens.
[Nexus One General] mindfrost82:
Mine seems to be hit or miss today. I got one that someone accepted a friend request, but I've had a couple people comment on my statuses and never got a notification on my phone, so who knows what they're doing.
[Nexus One General] maxib123:
yeh mine have too
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
I don't think status comments have ever had a notification?

Only messages, friend requests and invites have options for them in the settings.
[Nexus One General] mindfrost82:
I'm getting notifications for status replies now too.

I figured out my problem, but I have no idea how its related...it must be their server side.

I bought an iPod Touch this past weekend. I set it up for push notifications and it started working on my N1. Then I disabled it on the iPod and they stopped on my phone.

So then I turned it back on for the iPod and now its working on my N1 one again lol.
[Nexus One General] pfmiller:
So on the iOS version of the app they have an actual option for enabling push notifications? It's not surprise it's broken for Android users since they never added the option for us.
[Nexus One General] mindfrost82:
Yeah, when you first run the app it'll popup and ask if you want to enable push notifications for this app. If I have them enabled for the iPod, then they continue working for Android. If I turn them off on the iPod then they stop on Android. Really weird, but it sounds like they just have one trigger for push notifications no matter how many devices you're connecting with.
[Nexus One General] jobarr:
Hmm...do they keep working if you log out without disabling them? Just wondering if I could temporarily log in on a friend's iPhone to get it working on my N1.
[Nexus One General] inlogan:
This fixed it for me

I saw in another thread that someone deactivated his Facebook account and then reactivated it and starting receiving the push notifications. I figured I'd give it a try, and it worked. I started receiving the push notifications for comments on my wall posts, etc. All I did was go to Account Settings on Facebook on my computer, then clicked deactivate (don't worry, it saves everything). I then logged back in and it took a few minutes before I could log back into Facebook on my phone, but then I started getting the push notifications. They come in faster than the email ones do!
[Nexus One General] robotnoize:
I'm going to have to try the one above! I mean they work, but not as well as I thought they would. We'll see what doing that does.
[Nexus One General] robotnoize:
Has anyone noticed that you get notified about random people's check ins too? That's very weird. Not sure if it was already talked about.

With permission from the very gifted grafix man TonicAcid from the vibrant Forum. Here are some already made Boot/Shutdown animations.

Plus a tutorial to help create your own :D

Click link to be taken to his thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=862537

Understand that these files are set up to be flashed with CWM which we do not have. They have to be Non- flashable and moved using Root Explorer or similar app.

I am awaiting a reply from TonicAcid that will tell me what needs to be removed from CWM version to make them work right for us.

(Edit) confirmed: we can pull the bootanimation file from the flashable files and push them with root explorer or something that does the samething.

If you create any Non-Flashable Boots post them for others if you like:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] MarkP80nj:
What about the Samsung boot animation?

Just the shiny S without the t-mobile crap?

l googled all over the place and can't seem to find it...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] surfpr101:
thx for the info, im a n00b at this but will try
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Young Kim:
so all you have to do is just rename it to bootanimation.zip and push it to system/data?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thetrees13:
Yep that's all you gotta do. Make sure you delete the samsungboot and the samsungbootloop files in /system/media
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thetrees13:
Sorry I didn't read your post clearly. It goes it "/system/media" not in /system/data
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] peterpandesal06:
How can i do it? When changing the mount to r/w to r/o i cant do it. And after deleting samsung boot files it keeps on returning. What will i do?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shotchacokov:
Hmmmmm... i'm having issues here.

I had these running with 2.1uv kernel, but now with 3.1uv they don't want to take.

deodexed KD1

3.1uv kernel

removed the boot and bootloop samsung files, copied the bootanimation.zip to /system/media and i get no animation at all....

used to work when i was running 2.1uv. the original galaxy s animations work fine, but not bootanimation.zip...

any advice?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] MarkP80nj:
I use an app called bootanimation utility and it works fine.

You can import your own, or choose from some downloads. I currently have a cm7 one.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] rickyc19:
does it work with gingerbread?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shotchacokov:
Tried that with no luck...it's not that big of a deal.. I have the galaxy s original animations.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] peterpandesal06:
I pushed it to system/data and reboot the fone. After that i only got a black screen for my bootanimation. What will i do? :-(
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
then you're pushing it to the wrong place. you place bootanimation.zip to system/media. shutdown sound goes in system/media/audo/ui. shutdown folder goes in system/media/video.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] peterpandesal06:
I've already did that sir. But still it is blank screen for my bootanimation. What else I can do?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
hmm....so....

you downloaded an animation from this link, right?:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1053250

when you download the file, it comes in a zip file. open the zip file and you should notice a system folder. open that system folder and open the media folder within it. you should see a bootanimation.zip. that file is the one you are copying to system/media on your phone, right?

i know some people simply download the file and rename it to bootanimation.zip. they are actually renaming the cwm flashable file and not pushing the correct zip. you do not have to rename anything during this process. i would say to try and flash it, but for some reason, it never works for me, but you are more than welcome to try and flash it yourself. the above method is just in case that doesnt work.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] peterpandesal06:
sir, do i need to delete the samsungbootloop files for me to enable the bootanimation?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
yes, delete the samsungboot and the samsungbootloop.qmg files in system/media because they are being replaced by the bootanimation.zip
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Bassmanjames:
I flashed ravers audiophile rom and do not have any boot animation. I tried flashing a custom animation with no luck and tried the manual push with no luck. Any ideas or suggestions?

On the moon our weekend are so advanced they encompass the entire week
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] peterpandesal06:
Already done that though. But still nothibg happens but a blank screen as my bootanimation.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mzangui:
which rom do you use? maybe your doesn't support custom boot animation.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] MoToKrusheR:
I'm in the same boat.. black screen after deleting those 2 other files. It won't pick up my zip rename... I am running GB KG4 - rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Carlos2200:
Glad I found this page. Tried this with my Vibrant with SH5.1Beta1 and no go. Gonna try this with my SGS4g next with Audiophile. Almost same scenerio.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] crackpot:
GB doesn't currently have a kernel that supports the boot animations in zip form, your only option for now is just to replace the existing sounds/images, search there's a thread for the GSII boot/shutdown animations with sound ROM replace the stock ones.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] invario:
For anyone on the Audiophile

Froyo

series of ROMs, the reason you don't get the animation is because ravers did not include the executable "bootanimation" file that needs to be in /system/bin. I have no idea why he didn't include it.

All you need to do is grab the file I've attached that I got from BlackIce and unzip it. If you have BlackIce or another Froyo ROM on your system already, feel free to extract the file yourself from it. Take the file that's been extracted and copy into /system/bin.

I recommend SuperManager. Switch your system file mode into RW mode FIRST or else it won't work.

Make sure the permissions for bootanimation are set properly. It should be:

user: RWX

group: RX

other: RX

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] budco2000:
I have the HTC inspire 4G, and I'll be watching closely on phones i do not even own such as the thunderbolt to see if anyone is able to unlock the bootloader. Coming from a jailbroken Iphone 3GS and Iphone 4, to a rooted samsung captivate which I liked, has awesome graphics capability. 3 Months after buying the captivate the Inspire 4G was released and I had to have it. Not because its 4G, My 3G here in Tampa, Florida streamed HD videos without never having to stop to buffer, so I was satisfied with that, I average 3.8 down with almost every 3G phone I've ever owned. I bought it because of the screen size and camera flash. And I love it, I'm very impressed with my rooted Inspire, However a year from now, and I want another phone, If HTC becomes impossible to root, I'll go back to Samsung. Took 45 seconds to root my captivate and that includes downloading the one click root lol.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] angingrich:
I'm not saying I agree with them locking down the bootloader given the nature and ethos of Android, but from a business standpoint it does make sense. Perhaps they decided to begin locking things down because they were getting too many warranty/support claims by people who had screwed things up by modding their devices.

Again, I'm not defending it at all. Just try looking at it from the other perspective, eh?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] consegregate:
The original code crunchers won't like people to mess with their software! But it's alright our great developers of XDA will breeze past any obstacles :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] NeuroticallyYou:
from a business point of view it does make sense, specially with what angingrich says, a boycott is not gonna help because

a)either way people will still buy the phone

b)only a minority actually gets into hacking the phone like us

so there you go, that been said i don't think they will stop with the locking process, now try that on Docomo or Softbank they won't even unlock the phone even if you threat them with lawsuits....i guess business is business after all.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] budco2000:
I understand, I just feel it is my device, and I should be able to alter it the way I want. Just like the way I can on the Laptop I own. Be like getting a computer with no r/w access on your hard drive except to store multimedia.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ramdroid77:
I don't think support claims are the reason. Have you ever read about people bricking their HTC phones when they tried to root them? They brick their phones when they try to bypass a NAND lock or the Motorola signature check.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Haadkoe:
Given the choice I will not buy another handset with a locked bootloader.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] consegregate:
Mostly because r/w access to system files can eff things up more on a phone then a laptop? Safety for the average users and rooting for the more experienced who won't brick their phone and cry for warranty.

I won't buy an android phone if there's no root though! Nearly chucked my x10 mini pro because stock rom sucks.

I flashed Serendipity 6.2 on my Captivate yesterday and I've noticed a problem. The backlight on my buttons at the bottom of the screen stay on all the time, the settings, home, back and info buttons. I cannot find a setting to turn off the backlights on them or a setting to say how long they stay on until they go off. It's draining my battery faster because of it. Has anyone else noticed this problem with Serendipity 6.2, or am I missing a setting somewhere?

That is a feature in the ROM/Kernel, not a defect. If can be turned off/on in the recovery menu, or controlled via an app.

[Captivate General] TRusselo:
BLN (black light notification) is not supposed to stay on permanently.

but try booting into clockwork recovery > find BLN settings and disable.

give that a try.

OR it could be a problem with "keep the lights on" or whatever patch/method that rom uses to keep the lights on while touching screen.

also you get more help posting Questions in the Questions and Answer section... or more specifically the Serendipity Q&A thread
